I'm hoping this game is good.

Btw author you know the old Turtle games have levels where u literally fight all the bosses back to back right lol Clearly a callback to that.

Dario_DC2920d ago

Do yourself a favour and don't buy it, lot's of people reporting on how bad it and short it is.

ShaunCameron2920d ago

LOL @ short. Those "lots of people" must be new to playing Action games.

Dario_DC2920d ago

@Shaun, 3 hours in my book is short, specially when it costs 50€. But that's me.

ShaunCameron2918d ago

@ Dario_DC

$50+ for a 3 hour game (max) was standard fare 25 years ago. The only thing that made it long was the difficulty, not the actual length. Today's shortest games are 4 hours at bare minimum. If anything, TMNT:MIM is par for the course.

Typical of Platinum Games...

Pancit_Canton2920d ago (Edited 2920d ago )

You can should put Activision on blast as well. I'm sure the lack of content(s) are part of Activision's major scheme. DLC that sucker to death

DangerousDAN2920d ago

how do you start talking about activision all of a sudden?

Pancit_Canton2920d ago

@DangerousDAN

Because they are the publisher and we all know how they operate.

nevin12920d ago

They probably hope parents will buy it for their kids.

supes_242920d ago

I expected the game to be short and repetitive, wasn't expecting the next blockbuster game here. If it's really that short and they want full price $60, I'm out. I'd purchase for $40 tho, my son and I would have a blast playing this.

It's sad this comic book turned tabletop roleplaying game never got a good video game.

Is Platinum Games Losing its Sheen?

After the cancellation of Scalebound, Platinum Games seems doomed to collapse. But can they find retribution on the horizon?

Hendog19812660d ago

It's what happens when you stretch yourself too thin.

Absolutely agreed even though I really like Platinum Games I always felt they were hit or miss don't get me wrong Bayonetta and Vanquish are amazing titles the same with wonderful 101 but anything other than that has always been very questionable by them and I believe they had a huge consistency problem.

I'm happy that Nier feels like one of those amazing top games by this team, but I also worry because to my understanding that games development was literally split from the team that was creating the specific story and RPG elements to platinumgames Joseph physically creating the gameplay so it definitely makes me wonder if their team is just drawn too thin.

Right now I'm literally questioning how Nier would have turned out if just Platinum Games was simply working on it and none of the staff from Square Enix

Maybe them simply focused on creating 1 aspect of that game is why it was able to turn out so well in terms of how it feels.

Even though it's pretty easy to blame Microsoft in regards to the cancellation of scalebound if you consider they could have simply put in another team to assist them through the development but at the end of the day they still also contracted this team to do something in the first place.

That's basically like getting mad at a team for struggling to build your kitchen yet paying more money to another team to help the other team to build your kitchen.

I mean the way I see it is Microsoft really shouldn't have to do that if they had a very clear and honest deal with Platinum Games for them to create something for them.

I worry about this company's future because of all the bad releases they've had in the past as of right now the last great game I even remember from this team is probably Bayonetta 2.

showtimefolks2658d ago

I think they need to work on less projects and focus on better and more quality products

Gaming_Cousin2658d ago

I wouldn't want to develop for a company that treats me harshly

'Doomed to collapse'.

Haha. Much drama... they expect people to read this s***?

343_Guilty_Spark2658d ago

Depends on who they are working with.

never4get2658d ago

True, Epic Games #EPICFAIL #UE4RETAREDSLOW #EPICCEOLOVESMOBILE. KH0.2 can't even run 1080p60 on PS4PRO.

Since it's not just Spider-man, it may not be a simple case of franchise rights moving to another publisher. Fast and the Furious and TMNT aren't owned by Marvel/ Disney.

Activision may simply be trying to push away from licensed franchise products

gamer78042696d ago (Edited 2696d ago )

also the 2 worst ninja turtles games ever made, the recent nickelodeon games, atleast those had some of the charm of the tv series and old style tmnt games.

Cmv382696d ago

Spider man taking down because of the new one. These taken down because they are utter garbage.

lodossrage2696d ago

Spider-man isn't being taken down because of the new one coming up. It's being taken down because just like TMNT and Fast & Furious, they are no longer willing to pay the digital licenses on most of their franchise products.

SirCharles2696d ago

And nothing of value was lost
